POWC # 802: Success with Purpose: How to Lead in Business and at Home | Mike McCarthy

In this episode of Pillars of Wealth Creation, Todd sits down with Mike McCarthy to discuss his entrepreneurial journey and the key relationships that helped him scale Keller Williams into a global leader. Mike reflects on how early partnerships and intentional collaboration were critical to building something lasting. The conversation then turns to GoBundance, the mastermind group Mike co-founded for men who’ve achieved financial success and want more out of life—better health, stronger relationships, greater impact, and more fun. What began as a business-focused brotherhood has grown into a comprehensive life mastermind with deep accountability and support. Mike now spends much of his time leading Fambundance, the family-focused branch of GoBundance. He and Todd talk about the importance of helping entrepreneurial families come together to define shared values, create a rhythm of connection, handle conflict with purpose, and raise kids who are equipped to lead. Legacy, Mike explains, isn’t just about financial wealth—it’s about how well we prepare the next generation to thrive with it.
